Spanna Colline Novaresi Nebbiolo 2019

Little funk on the nose. Sour cherry, some minerals and a bit of smoke. Little lighter than I expected, some healthy tannin on the back end. Really fine wine for $20 or so. Nice to see Vallana’s around again. — 4 months ago

Dolcetta d'Alba 2019

Ne plus ultra of Dolcetto? Violets and roses. A not unpleasant touch of reduction (tar, asphalt). Silky. — 4 years ago

Cuvée Bernardo Vallana Spanna Nebbiolo 2018

Old-school hint of barnyard funk in the nose. Not enough for any concern, and it plays nicely with tangy, zingy macerated cherry and spice. A bit of crushed stone. Rapier-like acids propel the fruit along. Tannins are very soft. (Thanks to my brother @Angelo Casagrande for the gift!) — 6 months ago

Monprivato Cà d'Morissio Riserva Barolo Nebbiolo 1999

1999: Yeah. Outstanding 25-year old Barolo still an explosion of Nebbiolo flavor. Brick color but plenty of depth, with strawberry fruit well-balanced by typical leather and tar. A treat now, and wouldn’t wait any longer. — 10 months ago

Monprivato di Castiglione Falletto Barolo Nebbiolo 2007

2007 vintage drinking very well - was almost ready out of the bottle but improved with a few hours in the decanter. Wonderful red fruit on the palate with strawberries, raspberries and red cherries. Alcohol was slightly perceptible. This is in a good place and seems unlikely to improve much, but nowhere near a state of decline. Fruit is still quite primary with nice acidity — 4 months ago

Very nice, more Amarone like than Nebbiolo in my mind. Nice balance of sweetness and tartness. Grippy tannins. — 3 years ago
